• Terminal type: Rectangular Tongue
• Termination method: Crimp, Barrel
• Tab thickness: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Barrel inner diameter: 0.310" (7.87mm)
• Barrel outer diameter: 0.420" (10.67mm)
• Ring inner diameter: 0.340" (8.64mm)
• Contact material: Copper
• Contact finish: Electro-Tin
• Insulation type: Non-Insulated
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The substitute part LCA2-56F-Q meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring functional and physical compatibility with applications designed for the LCAS2-56F-Q.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCA2-56F-Q is the direct substitute for the obsolete LCAS2-56F-Q. Both components are manufactured by Panduit Corp and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product status: LCAS2-56F-Q is obsolete, while LCA2-56F-Q is active. The active status of LCA2-56F-Q ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and carry identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (8536.90.4000), confirming regulatory equivalence.

Selection of LCA2-56F-Q for new designs or component replacement applications eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full functional and physical compatibility with existing LCAS2-56F-Q installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCA2-56F-Q be used as a direct replacement for LCAS2-56F-Q?

A: Yes. The LCA2-56F-Q meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the LCAS2-56F-Q, including wire gauge, stud size, barrel dimensions, contact material, and finish. Both components are functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute LCAS2-56F-Q?

A: The LCAS2-56F-Q carries an obsolete product status, limiting availability. The LCA2-56F-Q is an active product from the same manufacturer with identical specifications, ensuring continued component supply.

Q: Are there packaging differences between LCAS2-56F-Q and LCA2-56F-Q?

A: The LCAS2-56F-Q packaging is not specified in available documentation. The LCA2-56F-Q is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement department.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both LCAS2-56F-Q and LCA2-56F-Q are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications.

Q: Are the barrel and ring dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature identical barrel inner diameter (0.310"), barrel outer diameter (0.420"), and ring inner diameter (0.340"), ensuring mechanical compatibility with existing stud and wire connections.

Q: What wire gauge do these terminals accommodate?

A: Both LCAS2-56F-Q and LCA2-56F-Q are rated for 2 AWG wire gauge with crimp barrel termination.
